Ellie Lawrance – Page 2 – WA Ghostwriter

Ellie Lawrance, Features Editor

Hi, I’m Ellie Lawrance and I’m a senior, and Co-features Editor for the WA Ghostwriter. This is my third year of working on the Ghostwriter and I’m so excited! I’ve always enjoyed reading, writing, and meeting new people which what inspired me to join sophomore year. I have a dog named Guvnor, and my favorite place is my cape house in North Truro where I visit with my friends. Some of my hobbies include journaling, hanging out with my friends, reading, and listening to music. I love the Ghostwriter community, and can’t wait to spend my last year of high school as an editor.
